Adding Detergent - Blomberg GSN9123 User Manual

Preparation
If the hardness level of the water that
you use is above 80 °dF (French
standard for water hardness) or if
you are using well water, then it is
recommended to use filter and water
purification devices.
If the hardness level of the water
that you use is below 8°dF (French
standard for water hardness),
there is no need to use salt in your
dishwasher. If this is the case, "No Salt
Warning Indicator" (if any) illuminates
continuously on the panel of your
machine.
If the water hardness adjustment is
set to level 1, the "No salt warning
indicator" will illuminate continuously
although it is not necessary to use salt.
If you use salt under this condition, salt
will not be consumed and the lamp will
not illuminate.
C
Since different salt brands
in the market have different
particle sizes and since the
water hardness may vary,
dissolution of the salt in
water may take a couple
of hours. Therefore, Salt
Indicator remains on for a
while after adding salt into
the machine.
Loose salt grains can cause
rust marks in your machine
if not rinsed away. Only fill
salt just before a programme
is run.
Detergent
You can use powder or tablet detergent
in the machine.
